Loving yourself is not a destination. Loving yourself is a muscle you build. When we approach self-love as a way of living, rather than some elevated state of being, we can choose at this exact moment to start.

To the women reading this piece, the next time your inner self-critic takes over when you’re looking in the mirror, I challenge you to stop the negative dialogue about your looks. I encourage you to instead of obsessing over how to become prettier, you ask yourself how you can feed your inner beauty.
